  • Visualize it.

    Visualizing ideas is a powerful step toward bringing them to life. Sharing these visualizations with us allows us to collaborate and refine your ideas, transforming them into something of your taste.

  • We create it.

    Creating a commissioned drawing starts with a consultation between the artist and client to discuss details like subject, style, size, and budget. After feedback, the artist refines the chosen sketch, focusing on composition and details. Once finalized, the artwork is created using selected materials and techniques, with ongoing communication. The finished piece is presented for approval before being finalized and prepared for delivery.

  • Invoice and order placement.

    An initial 25% deposit is required upon the request of each project to secure your spot in our schedule and ensure we can allocate the necessary resources. This deposit helps us maintain our commitment to quality and timely service, allowing us to work collaboratively on your vision from the very beginning.

Make it stand out.

My sister approached me with a vision to capture the essence of legendary Tupac Shakur and his inspiring mother, Afeni Shakur, in a drawing. She wanted to honor their legacy and the profound impact they’ve made, not only in music but also in advocating for change and empowerment. Her passion for their story ignited her idea of beautifying her bar room with this artistic tribute. After discussing her vision, I was thrilled to take on the commission, knowing it would bring a powerful presence to her space and spark conversations about their enduring influence.
